Gray announces candidacy for County Commissioner, District 3

To the citizens of Gilchrist County:
My name is Todd Gray, and it is my hope that you will consider allowing me to serve as your next County Commissioner for District 3. As a local business owner and community volunteer, I feel my experience will bring something new to the Board of County Commissioners. I am 42 years old and have been married to my wife Cindy for 22 years. We have eight children, ranging in age from 20 years down to 2, and they continue to be our pride and joy. We are active members of the Fanning Springs Community Church.
While operating Gray Construction Services for the past ten years, I have had the pleasure of working with many private business owners as well as county, city, and town governments spread throughout North Central Florida. While not perfect, we have worked hard to provide our customers with a level of service that is unmatched in our industry. It is this attitude of service that I hope to bring to the residents and taxpayers of Gilchrist County. Making tough decisions is not something I take lightly, but it is required on a daily basis to succeed in good or bad economic times. As your commissioner I will strive to provide leadership that represents what is best for the whole of Gilchrist County, and not any specific group or special interest.
In addition to my professional experience, I have served our community over the years through various community groups: Gilchrist County Chamber of Commerce (two 3-year terms), Gilchrist County Visioning Committee--2010, Trenton Rotary Club--current member and Past-President, Gilchrist County Schools--Bell Site Committee, Suwannee Valley Leagues--Coach of all sports, Builders Association of North Central Florida (Board Member), and Drummond Community Bank (Board of Directors).
Thank you in advance for your consideration, and I look forward to meeting many of you between now and the election.
Respectfully,
Todd Gray
